Lynn Ferguson Departs LLS
Craig’s sister, producer/actress/comedienne Lynn Ferguson has been on the writing staff of the Late Late Show for the past couple of years but on Monday, she announced she’s leaving the show to concentrate on her other projects.

So, esp for Independence day, I have left the LLS. Loved it LOADS but it be time to adventure into the strange ways of this here countreeee //Apparently Craig still has to be my brother tho 🙂

Just last week, she mentioned that she has obtained her green card and has begun the steps necessary to obtain US citizenship.  In Los Angeles and other US cities, she has performed and produced some of the one-woman shows she debuted at the Edinburgh Festival to good reviews.  We wish her well as she expands her horizons in America.

Tonight’s Guests-Correction
Monday on the Late Late Show, it’s a rebroadcast of the April 6th episode with actress Ellen Page and comedian Marc Maron.  (We had mistakenly listed this as a new episode in an earlier edition.)  On Tuesday, all new episodes return and Craig’s guests will be comedian Stephen Wright, actress Ellie Kemper, and from the Mythbusters, Adam Savage.

On Monday, Craig tweeted:

Happy 4th of July everybody.

We hope all of our readers had a happy and safe holiday weekend.
